The Chestnut Tree

Release date: 7 September 2007 (Los Angeles, USA)

South Korean, Hyun-min Lee created this fine hand-drawn 4-minute animation based on recollections of her childhood and mother. Beautifully sweet in character - something much needed these days - it is an homage to both mothers and the lost Disney art of hand drawing individual animation cells. I loved the initial transition from young woman to little girl. Well done.

My rating 10 out of 10.
